Historically, the industry was shaped by the "Five Majors" of the 1920s through the 1960s—MGM, Paramount, Fox, Warner Bros., and RKO Radio—which established the factory-like model of film production [4, 10]. This era, often called the "Golden Age," introduced sound to film and created the "star system," where actors were contracted exclusively to specific studios to drive economic gains [10, 12]. Modern studios have adapted this legacy by shifting toward high-stakes, expensive blockbusters and diversifying into "entertainment empires" that operate theme parks, publishing houses, and music recording enterprises [13, 15].
